Everyone creates level capped characters, they start with full kit of top tier gear and pvp on as level a playing ground as can be found. I've done the wow tourtnament realm, it's fun. Well worth the $25 it cost to enter.
This would be a good idea. The OPs idea is crap but this one would work imo.

I would be happy to watch the matches. *raises big foam finger above head*

Nice thing about a game built for casuals with a Pay-2-Win system like the Cartel Market... Anything is possible

Hmm, good for you I guess. I would find such an MMO (perma death) extremely frustrating and likely drop it very quickly. I'm guessing that I would be far from alone in that as well. GL with any game design that follows that idea and being profitable.

Perhaps instead of an insta-cap token, a timed double-XP token might work better?

..say 4X number of CC as the current XP boosts for 1 or 3 hours double XP, since it would be 4 times the current boost bonus? (100% vs. 25%)

Oh, and this should probably be moved to the Cartel Market suggestions subforum.

lol no
Altaholics get the double XP weekends, which will hopefully start to happen a little more often because of how popular they were.
This would be the WORST idea ever. Especially for free to play players. where the 1-50 grind is pretty much all they get. Not to mention that would move the cartel market completely into the "Pay to win" territory. Which Bioware has very openly said they would NEVER do.
I'm working on 2 more alts as we speak. With another two planned for later on. I'll admit it's a bit stale, but I'm still happy to put the work into them so that I can feel like I earned my level 55. If you're too lazy or impatient to level an alt, then don't lol. Don't expect to just be able to fork up 80 bucks to buy an insta 50.

Seriously. this is the silliest thing I have ever seen suggested.

Simply leveling faster isn't "pay to win" because any perceived advantage disappears once you hit level cap. If it was then we wouldn't even have all the current 25% boosts.

Flame me, but, some people just like end-game. And I think this would be a great idea, but maybe not so many coins. Maybe like 7500 or something.
